What's so excited about going fast in a straight line? The RX-8 excels at great handling, and that's where pure driving excitement is, IMHO.

Yes if I wanted to drag race I would of bought a car with ALOT more torque.
This was merely a question on the 8 capability to launch faster. Period.
I just hate when people assume things.

launching doesnt automatically assume drag racing... autoxing for example or ...street racing... and such things require a good launch. launching is just another technique any good driver has to perfect and know how to do well. its the stepping stone to higher things IMO
